Gus, shows his wonderful knowledge Of
the masses and of individuals; except N
two or three cases on Oae exalted domain,
OF which he always remains ignorant, he
has ever hit the mark, applying the sppro-
pirate lever, giving just the push, weight
and degree of impulsion which accom-
plishes his purpose. A series of BRIEF
accurate memoranda, corrected daily,
enables him to frame for himself a sort of
psychological tablet whereOn he notes
down and sums up, in an almost numer-
zeal valuation, the mental and moral dis
positions, characters, faculties, passions
and aptitudes, the strong or weak points
Of the innumerabIe human beings, near
or remote, on whom he acts.

Household.

Doubtless the young hOusekeeper OF
to-day in a moment OF dependency
thinks that these days are worse than
those that went before, and fails to note
how much benefit she derives from the
press in the experience CT these. The old
recipe book in manuscripts. handed down
from mother TO daughter, was for long
time the ONLY guide; then came Miss Les

practical recipes, needing the art OF
French cook and confeCtioner as well IS

Owl Eyes in a MANS Head.
Virginia New Chronicle.

A young man residing in Lincoln, Placer
county, Cal, is credited with optical
organs possessing the peculiarities of
those Of an owl. He can see but little in
daylight, search y any at ell in the sun
light, but at night his vision is perfect.
He can penetrate the darkness with MS
peculiarly shaped and nocturnally con-
structeG eyes, and distinguish objects at
long distances when the "Ordinary indi-
vidual" can not see his hand before him.
His wonderful sight has been tested by
many, and as guide atnight he has no
equal.
